Loom Knitting

 This is a hat set that I was blessed to make.... Many thanks to my dear friend Ms Kay for teaching to me look for and recognize Gods blessings!!

 This I was super excited about!  So excited with the outcome... I did the ewrap stitch on a DaLooms regular gauge hat loom... increasing to the point of the scarf then decreasing back to the other side....I did a crochet border. It is basically a simple prayer shawl on a smaller scale.

 I made this hat for my dear friend, MaryEllen's son, Harrison... he loves Angry Birds...I made it to small so I will have to make him a new one. I just was not thinking... if you know of a child up to about age 3 that would love this hat please let me know.

I love to make  Hat/Scarf combo... they are one of my favorite things to make.  This is the frist one I made with just one yarn color...I really like how it turned out!!

Thank you so much for taking the time to look at my creations.

May God truly bless your life.

Ear Flap Hat

 I made this hat to practice on a base for my Sock Monkey hat that is inspired by Dawn aka Backwoods Knifty Knits... This was made with self stripping yarn and I love how the ear flaps turned out... I crocheted around the edges.  Thank you for looking!  Hugs

Ruffle Hat

Handmade Design by

Jeannie Phillips ~ Southside Al

I made a hat similar to this one and a sweet lady I met through Facebook and a high school classmate took a kitten of mine...she saw my other hat and ask me if I sold these hats.... I said no... orders make me crazy!!  She said she understood...I later ran into her cousin that I had graduated high school with and learned she will be going through chemo...I felt so small that I had not said I would make her a hat... I made this one as a gift to her!!  She is a real sweetheart and has taken one of my kittens and loves it dearly... I hope she is pleased with her hat!

Felted Heart Baby Hat

Handmade Design by

Jeannie Phillips ~ Southside, AL

I have been wanting to do this forever!!... Felting on hats is why I wanted the fine gauge looms so bad.... wheel I finally got the chance.... I didn't have much wool roving ...and I used thread I had leftover.. this is a newborn hat... I did the heart by needle felting wool roving into a heart and adding a tail... Hope that you like it... oh yes if you didn't know my sweet husband is upstairs building me a spinning wheel!!...I am so excited. Between my spinning wheel and my felted heart hat I am a happy woman!!

A Toboggan for my Daddy

Handmade Design by

Jeannie Phillips ~ Southside, AL

My daddy ask me to make him a hat in Alabama colors...he is a huge Alabama Football fan.. I didn't like the idea of the red with just a white strip or two then I decided to add the grey...I really like how this turned out... wish I had an Alabama patch to add.  I made this on the largest round loom..I hope that this fits my daddy!  I love my daddy!!  Oh yes.. I forgot to say I love LOOM KNITTING!! Thank you for looking!!  ~Hugs, Jeannie

Baby Cocoon/Hat Set ... Alpaca Yarn

Handmade Design by

Jeannie Phillips ~ Southside, Al

 Have I said latley that I LOVE LOOM KNITTING!!I am so excited about this set...I purchased this yarn at one of the yarn stores I visited last week...I couldn't wait to make this cocoon/hat set with this yarn.  It is wonderful yarn... I love it...my first Alpaca yarn... I love the colors.  This store that I found grown their own alpacas and then spins and dies their yarns... I think I am hooked...which is a bad thing... I believe that I am slowly becoming a yarn snob... this could get expensive! Thanks for looking! ~Hugs, Jeannie

Handmade Design by

Jeannie Phillips ~ Southside, Al

A photographer contacted me and wanted me to make him a couple of toboggans and after a couple of emails decided he wanted cocoons to match.  For a boy he wanted earth tones...and he needed this one first.. I really loved how it turned out...  I added a pom pom to it... it is in the last picture.. I just tied it on with a bow so its removable.....I just sent him a picture I home he loves it as much as I do.. cross your fingers for me.   Hugs, Jeannie

Scarf and Toboggan for my brother!

Handmade Design by

Jeannie Phillips

This is for my brother, Jamie. He is a Fireman and he ask for these... the black and the stripe is a fireman thing... The scarf took me 3 days...and I knitted lots and lots and lots...the scarf has around 11088 stitches + /- a few... the scarf is 6 feet long and 7 inches wide. I am really proud at how it turned out. I used my Purple KK Loom on both.  The red stripe in the hat is knitted in... the red stripes in the scarf were added after I finish....and re-added then re-added...now I know the trick. I hope Jamie love this...because I love my brother so much!

Handmade Designes by

Jeannie Phillips ~ Southside, Al

My pastor asked me to make his to sweet daughters a toboggan.... I have had them on my looms a few days until I could get their measurements today... now I am worried about the height...but it falls under the heights of youth hats... the green and cream hat I made on my youth size DaLooms loom and the (cross your fingers its big enough).  The black hat I made on my Purplep KK round loom.  I used three strands of #4 yarn on it... love how bulkey this was... I did the Double Moss Stitch on this hat it is so think and warm.. I am really proud of them both... I will be gald when I get more experience under my belt and don't worry so much that I have the fit right.  Thank you so much for looking!!  Hugs, Jeannie

Baby Cocoon w/ matching Toboggan

Handmade Designs by

Jeannie Phillips ~ Southside, AL

I have been busy though you can't tell in pictures because I have two hats on looms waiting to get measurements for the height so I will have a perfect fit... Hope to finish those Monday!!  I am excited about this set.. the stitches on the hat match the stitches on the cocoon except that I used a finer gauge loom for the hat.  This set is for a baby shower gift for a young lady at our Church... I hope that she loves it... I think babies are so sweet in them...and they make wonderful picture props... They think the baby is a boy... but I wasn't sure so I went with the white.

Robby's First Hat!!

Handmade by

Robby Phillips ~ Southside AL

Don't you think he did a beautiful job!!.... My sweet husband Robby is out of work due to a foot injury he got while delivering his UPS packages.... looks like 12 weeks recovery.... hopefully not surgery..... anyway he is antsy, because unlike me he is a "busy" person and doesn't sit still to good (and he needs to!!)... day before yesterday I said something like I need to get this finished because I need to make Pastor Whimpy's hat... he said "Can I help?"... I gave him a loom and set him to work... didn't he do a beautiful, beautiful job!

Thank you for looking!  Hugs, Jeannie

Baby Toboggan - DaLoom Baby Loom

Handmade Design by

Jeannie Phillips ~ Southside, AL

I made this hat on my DaLoom's Baby Loom... it is fine gauge loom... I have to tell you this took 63 rows...and there are 74 pegs on this loom....so this hat has 4662 stitches... handmade stitches!!... but it has been so much fun!!!  It took me a while to make but I love the small stitches...and the wind is not getting trough this hat!!... I can tell you I can't imagine making a scarf on a fine gauge loom...that could take forever!! For Christmas I am getting the set of 7 FG round looms... I can't wait!  Thank you Provo Craft for introducing me to Loom Knitting!!  I love it!

Toboggan with a "t"

Designed by

Jeannie Phillips~ Southside AL

I sure picked the wrong yarn for this hat...the black running through the camo thread ended up solid black in places where I needed it to be a lighter color... then I had to undo like 12 rows of this hat...and I don't have time!!...lol.... I still need to make one more hat...at least its a baby hat.... I can do this one over for Trey after Christmas if he doens't like it...He is in the second grade...I thought he might like the monogram hat!!.... I just wish that I was happier with it!  Hugs, Jeannie

Ear Flap Hat

Handmade Design by Jeannie Phillips

I read how to do ear flaps in Isela Phelps book.... and where you put the flaps on the peg to add them to the hat... I marked those pegs on the next to smallest loom... laid it in the middle of my purple loom and laid thread across the middle of both looms to make a cross and marked the center point on both looms... I used this as a guide to decide how to big to make my ear flaps...then I just winged it from there...I knitted these from the end of the strings up!!...I was so so excited when it turned out and the flaps were in the exact right place!  This is for my niece Katy for Christmas... she will be in high school next year and their school colors are Blue and White... I so hope that she loves it!!  Thank you for looking!  Hugs, Jeannie

Toboggan w/Stick Man

Handmade Design by Jeannie Phillips

The toboggan that I made yesterday was just shy of 8 inches..it came just above my husbands earlobes... this one is 9 inches tall ... it is for my son and he said his ears are getting cold..so this one is made to completely cover his ears and come down to his brows and his neck.... This is a sweater motif and I had to modify it to make the stitches per inch match both vertically and horizontally... it takes a minute to see the stick man... so mostly it looks like a geometrical design... then  you see the stick man... I think (hope) that he loves this when he opens it at Christmas... Thank you so much for looking!!!   Hugs, Jeannie

Toboggin with Knitting Motif

Handmade by Jeannie Phillips

I am beyond excited about this hat!!!...I used Chunky yarn on the purple knifty knitter... the chunky yarn is wonderful!!... this toboggan to me really looked special!!... the brim is just one layer not brought up through the middle... I did in in KKP,KKP.... and the top of the hat is all K stitches... I bought a used book 1000 Great Knitting Motifs... it is more for sweaters... I didn't realize that when I bought this... I can't imagine that I could ever make a sweater... but I was beyond excited that I put this design into this hat... Thank you so much for looking!!  Hugs Jeannie
